Her pamphlet No Theatre ( Smith / Doorstop ) was shortlisted for the Forward Prize for Best First Collection 1997, and her first full collection Prince Rupert's Drop ( 1999 ), was shortlisted for the Forward Prize for Best Collection.
In 2002, she was the winner of the Keats-Shelley Prize for Poetry and in 2004 she was nominated as one of the Poetry Book Society's ' Next Generation ' poets.
Her other books include Christina the Astonishing ( with Lesley Saunders and Peter Hay, 1998 ) and Tideway ( illustrated by Peter Hay, 2002 ), both from Two Rivers Press.
She is a mentor on the Crossing Borders creative writing system, which was set up by the British Council and Lancaster University.
Her latest work is her first translation-the 14th century Middle English poem Pearl-in which she aims at a fluid and echoing character which loosens some of the original end-stopped pulse.
